Abstract

Let XX be a dendrite with set of endpoints E(X)E(X) closed and let f: XXf:~X \to X be a continuous map with zero topological entropy. Let P(f)P(f) be the set of periodic points of ff. We prove that if LL is an infinite ω\omega-limit set of ff then LP(f)E(X)L\cap P(f)\subset E(X)^{\prime}, where E(X)E(X)^{\prime} is the set of all accumulations points of E(X)E(X). Furthermore, if E(X)E(X) is countable and LL is uncountable then LP(f)=L\cap P(f)=\emptyset. We also show that if E(X)E(X)^{\prime} is finite then any uncountable ω\omega-limit set of ff has a decomposition and as a consequence if ff has a Li-Yorke pair (x,y)(x,y) with ω_f(x)\omega\_f(x) or ω_f(y)\omega\_f(y) is uncountable then ff is Li-Yorke chaotic.
